Andrew Marston introduces the Herefordshire musicians that sail the world
Unsigned, undiscovered and under-the-radar music from Herefordshire and Worcestershire.
• With the Worcester musician who's releasing a charity single in memory of his brother.
• Chatting to Stourport's Vinny Peculiar, who was tutored by Clifford T Ward.
• The frontman of Noah and the Whale talks about his "homecoming gig" in Worcester, next week.
• We're with the Herefordshire couple who spend most of their life on a sailing boat playing shows wherever the wind takes them. And - this week - it's taken them to the Caribbean!
